Some information:
The Masterclass on the Use and Conduct of Patient-Oriented Research aims to prepare individuals to champion the conduct and use of patient-oriented research (POR) in Ontario's health system. POR, in a nutshell, is research that engages patients as partners in the planning and conduct of health research and in efforts to support the use of health research. Individuals such as patients, family members and caregivers, healthcare providers, policymakers and managers, and researchers are critical participants in ensuring that the health system in Ontario is based on high quality, relevant research evidence. https://www.mcmasterforum.org/learn-how/system-leaders

The objectives of the Masterclass are:
• To develop the competencies needed to conduct and use POR in Ontario;
• To become familiar with the additional training and other supports available in Ontario to conduct and use POR; and,
• To identify ways that you, your organization and other organizations with whom you (could) work can better support the conduct and use of POR in the future and monitor and evaluate your efforts.
